Not just people. Assets are moving too.
Executive Summary
We’re not just seeing millionaires change countries. We’re seeing money move into new asset classes — particularly private aviation.
High‑net‑worth individuals buy homes, found companies… and buy or lease business jets. Meanwhile, global jet activity is surging. For savvy investors, this dual shift in migration and asset allocation presents a rare opportunity: follow the wealthy — and their jets.
What’s Happening Now?
Around 142,000 millionaires are projected to relocate globally in 2025, drawn by tax regimes, lifestyle, and opportunity. (Business Insider)
Business jet usage continues climbing: one source shows global departures up 11% year‑on‑year in Week 45 of 2025, and rolling four‑week trends ahead by 7%. (privatejetcardcomparisons.com)
Market forecasts show business jet deliveries and transactions growing: for example, a Honeywell forecast projects 8,500 new business jets worth $283 billion over the next decade. (aerospace.honeywell.com)
Migration + capital + private jets = a new investment dynamic. The wealthy aren’t just changing domicile—they are changing allocation: from equities or real estate into high‑end mobility assets.
What This Means for Investors
1. Follow migration flows and jet demand
Where millionaires go, demand for high‑end mobility assets often follows. That means jets, fractional ownership schemes, aircraft leasing funds — they all benefit.
2. Asset‑class shift signals value creation
The migration of wealth into aviation signals that capital is seeking real assets with mobility, privacy, and global reach—not just conventional returns.
3. Differentiated investment thesis emerges
Aircraft investments can offer:
Asset backing (the jet)
Growth potential (rising usage + deliveries)
Migration‑driven demand (WEALTH + mobility)
This creates a nexus of forces few portfolios currently address.
4. Risk‑mitigated entry point
Given rising activity and backlog constraints, acquiring or leasing jets before full institutional saturation offers upside. The migration trend offers structural tailwinds rather than speculative hype.
What’s Next?
Expect jet leasing funds and structured credit vehicles to scale, aligned with HNWI migration and usage growth.
Expect tailored aviation offerings for family offices seeking mobility + asset backing + portfolio diversification.
Expect jurisdictional arbitrage: migration friendly countries may see more private aviation activity—making domicile + aircraft strategy combined a powerful duo.
